Package: quake4 (77 and others) [contrib]

[ Source: game-data-packager  ]

science-fiction-themed first person shooter

Quake 4 is a first-person shooter game by Raven Software and id Software, released in 2005. This package contains a launcher script and menu entry to play Quake 4 using the proprietary x86 binaries provided by id Software.

Please note that the Quake 4 engine is not Free Software, and Debian cannot fix any bugs or security flaws in the engine or game code.

To make this package useful, you will need to create and install some non-distributable packages by using the game-data-packager package: quake4-bin, and either quake4-data (for all regions except Germany) or quake4-censored-de-data (for the incompatible version sold in Germany). Creating those packages requires data files from a Quake 4 installation or DVD.
